Photography / Macro / Nature

I had this dragonfly upper body for quite a while,but haven't gone around using it until a few weeks ago.Or a month ago I think.
The wings were pretty and wonderful to photograph!
I used a blank page from an old comic book because it had this smooth and aged look to it.It's not obvious in the picture,but works a lot better than pure-white A4 which would've made it look cold and clinical.

When I got the dragonfly from my grandma's garden,it was missing the lower body already.So I only have the upper part.

While taking pictures of it,the wings itself didn't really fill the frame properly so I decided to extend and "implant" a body.
The object that looked best was the glass syringe!

This picture took more than 3 hours to make.
It might look very very simple,but I spent so much time trying to get the right objects to put beside it

Hahaha.

I love how even though the objects are all completely random, they all look amazing together. Plus, I love the lighting. Wonderful job.

I don't really understand what message there is behind this beautiful composition nor why you chose those specific objects, but my eyes can't go away from this brilliant photo!!
